I’ve been busy working on FamilyLearn projects and haven’t had time until now to pay attention to the many changes that Ezra and Jon have been making to Merb. Here’s a summary of some noteworthy changes over the past week:

• There is no longer a “dist” folder. The Merb directory structure is now even closer to Rails’ directory structure.
• Created a “mixins” directory and removed “merb_” prefixes from Merb’s inner workings.
• An interesting ticket was submitted which documents how to progressively stream HTTP output in Merb/Mongrel. (Thanks to b.candler and ry)
• You can now “throw” content and “catch” it again from any partial or view.
